Who is Adam Newbold? Ohio man who stormed Capitol bans Joe Biden voters from cafe: 'Our coffee is not for you'
A coffee shop owner who was part of the crowd that stormed the Capitol building on January 6, has now banned people who voted for Joe Biden from entering his store in Lisbon, Ohio. Identified as Adam Newbold, the man recently shared with local TV news how it's not just Biden supporters banned from his business. He doesn't want transgender people or those "taking a knee during the national anthem" walking into his store as well.
Newbold, who maintains that although he did storm the Capitol, he was not part of the riots and destruction that went on inside, firmly believes their coffee is not for people who voted for Biden.

In an interview with WKBN, the C4 Coffee owner said "If you voted for Joe Biden, don't buy our coffee, it's not for you." He continued, "If you feel that America is on the right track and there's nothing wrong with gender-neutral, don't know which bathroom to use, use whichever bathroom you feel like during the day… don't buy our coffee cause it's not for you."
And while Newbold maintains that he just silently watched from the steps outside while "patriotic angry Americans" rampaged the Capitol building, he insists on the significance of it all. "I was there, I witnessed the patriotic angry Americans chanting, 'USA, USA'," he said. However, he admitted that it was also "a very volatile situation that is an absolute miracle it wasn't more deadly than it was."
In a January interview, Newbold had also described the riots as "historic" and "necessary" and he said that "the reason I'm proud of Americans is because I wasn't sure if we still had the spine anymore." Newbold's revelations come just a week after the US has been torn over President Biden falling on the stairs up the Air Force One plane to Atlanta, where he was traveling for a chat with community leaders, following the tragic mass Asian parlor shooting by Robert Long.
Drawing criticism for having once compared ex-POTUS Donald Trump's fitness to his own, Biden was targeted with a media frenzy that questioned how fit he himself was to run the country. From his posh resort in Mar-a-Lago, Trump even mocked the current president's fall noting "I didn't lose to him".
“I watched as Joe Biden went up the stairs today and I said, ‘I didn’t lose to him’, which we didn’t lose to him,” Trump could be seen in a TikTok video gone viral on Twitter, speaking to a crowd that roared with laughter. “Almost 75 million votes and probably a lot more than that," Trump added, repeating his election fraud claims.
The White House however begs to differ on anything being wrong with Biden's health. White House Deputy Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said when asked about the president's fall, “It’s pretty windy outside. It’s very windy. I almost fell coming up the steps myself. He is doing 100 percent fine.”
White House Communications Director Kate Bedingfield also clarified: “I know folks have seen that President Biden slipped on his way up the stairs to AF1, but I’m happy to report that he is just fine and did not even require any attention from the medical team who travels with him. Nothing more than a misstep on the stairs."
